Approximate Costs
Because of the demand for Santa Ron's services, especially during November and December, certain policies have been established to ensure fairness to all involved, including Santa Ron!
Fees
The average rates are listed below (These are just average and may vary depending on your location, as travel time may be added)
For Christmas Eve and Christmas Morning the fees are slightly higher due to demand.
Retainer Fee
Because Santa Ron must turn away other potential clients for times when he is already booked, a retainer fee must be submitted before any booking is considered final. The amount of the retainer fee is dependent upon which day of week your event is. To secure your booking, contact Santa Ron to pay your retainer fee.
Postponing Events
It is understandable that circumstances may arise that require that you reschedule an event, but Santa Ron must honor those clients who have previously scheduled his time first. If you have to reschedule let Santa Ron know as soon as possible. If he can re-book the time from your cancellation, he will re-apply your retainer to the new date.
Refunds
Retainers are non-refundable unless Santa Ron can recover the time with another client and only when there is sufficient notice.
All bookings are considered "tentative" and still "available" unless secured by a retainer.
Remaining Balance
The remaining balance due to Santa Ron must be paid upon his arrival to the event. This helps Santa from having to track down the payor at the end of the event and possibly being late for other events. Payment can be made electronically through paypal; cashapp; venmo; or by cash. Payment by cash should be placed in an envelope and given to Santa by saying, “Thank You for coming Santa, here is a card from us" or "Is it too late to give you my wish list"
Making Reservation
To make your reservation you MUST contact Santa Ron to make sure he is available for your requested time.
Thank You
Santa Ron

Everyone dreams of catching Santa in their home on Christmas Eve. If you catch him in the act, you know he’s real. Santa comes in and you’ll wake the children. You watch from a distance (careful not to be seen) and catch Santa putting gifts under tree. Santa will even eat cookies you leave out for him, if you wish.
